Cleaning lightweight
flexible rugs
Stand on one end of rug and move
cleaner toward other end or edge.
Before reaching edge, push down
on handle. This will lift up the nozzle
(front of cleaner) as shown and will
prevent rug from clinging to cleaner.
Continue to lift up nozzle so that
when you have reached the edge, it
is completely off the rug. Move
cleaner back to start again, lower
nozzle, and use only forward
strokes.
